I Really Need to Get My Act Together

Blogging upon request is difficult, but blogging because you just realized the object of all you affections, Ed, is moving back to their not-too-far-away institute of higher learning is easy. Again the song is pulsing through my veins.I guess I'll have to wait until May to truly see their immaculate face again. But until then, I guess Alice's beaming face will have to do. She still has no idea that certain expressions she makes give me chills. The resemblance cannot be ignored. Will Jacob make an appearance this year, or will I have to wait without a sun to light my rainy days yet again? You know I will gladly forget Ed for you, so what's the hold up?

I have recently started a new novel because I was feeling to suffocated with the one I have been working on for more than a year. I realized to get you to feel what I wanted you to feel from reading it, I would have to totally change the dynamic of EVERYTHING. Right now, I'm not in the proper place for that kind of stress.

Craving something easy, I started the new novel. Starting a new novel is always easy. The plot itself is predictable until the very end. I'm focusing more on the characters more than I have ever done before. The relationships are predictable as well, but more thoroughly explained than in my last novel. It is also more of a departure from my usually scenarios. Supernatural elements permeate, but aren't really in the foreground. It is a character study at heart. The reader will cry at the end.

Ollie Ollie Oxen Free!Come out from hiding.Or at least give me a clue.Don't you want me to find you?

I don't really know an Ed or an Alice. haha. They're book characters. Jacob is too. I just use their names instead of the real ones for privacy's sake.Ed is one person, Alice is Ed's sister. Jacob is of no relation to either.
